Most SWORD and Anderson collectors will know MOLTO of Spain from their fabulous Three in One boxed set of Thunderbirds vehicles similar to JR21 toys.
Less well known is their JEEP MILITAR pictured here. A lovely looking thing, it is clearly from the same design as the SpaceX Cricket. Its most likely based on one of the earlier British versions such as the Codeg one beautifully photographed by Scoop in 2011 . What do you think readers? Anyone know the timeline of these cricket-style toys?
TI had one of these, probably from a toy stall at a local fair, possibly circa 1965.
ReplyDeleteWhich one Andy, the Molto one or the Codeg?
ReplyDeleteNow you're asking- all I can remember is that is was green, and had seated troops in the back. I don't think it had radar, and I'm sure it did'nt have a missile
ReplyDeleteCould it have been a Hong Kong toy, rahter than Spanish etc?
Might even have bene eralier than 65...
The missile has three flavor stages like a Zoom Ice Lolly!
